The book was a total page turner for me.
Thrilling, dark and disturbing which makes us thinking of our morals as a society.
Initially took some time to grasp the story but it started getting more and more engaging as I joined the passengers in their journey. The twists was mind blowing although I was expecting more at the end, it was pretty satisfying.

This is my second book by John Marrs, and I had to be persuaded to read it because I didn't particularly like The One (despite thinking that its premise was cool and sections of it were interesting [my review here: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3100197563 ]).

I'm glad I did. This book was really cool. And so twisty! I really enjoyed all the turns the book took and the journey the protagonist (Libby) went on over the course of the book was compelling. John Marrs did a great job of making me root for her throughout the book. I definitely recommend this one.

This one didn’t stick for me. I tried picking it up so many times and ended up putting it down. I might try to finish again one day, but for now it’s a DNF.
